Overview

• The Houston Parks and Recreation Department will open 10 city pools for Memorial Day weekend, operating Saturday through Monday with reduced hours.
• Pools will be open from 1–7 p.m. on Saturday, 1–6 p.m. on Sunday, and 1–5 p.m. on Memorial Day, with at least two pools available in each of Houston's four regions.
• The openings mark the first time city pools are accessible this year, with all but two of Houston's 38 pools operational in terms of infrastructure.
• Current staffing includes over 40 lifeguards, with more than 100 applications submitted and nearly 70 job offers extended as recruitment continues.
• After Memorial Day, pools will close until June 10, when the city plans to transition to full weekday summer operations, potentially avoiding previous years' rotating schedules.
